== Disease ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/NCOA1_HUMAN NCOA1_HUMAN] Note=A chromosomal aberration involving NCOA1 is a cause of rhabdomyosarcoma. Translocation t(2;2)(q35;p23) with PAX3 generates the NCOA1-PAX3 oncogene consisting of the N-terminus part of PAX3 and the C-terminus part of NCOA1. The fusion protein acts as a transcriptional activator. Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common soft tissue carcinoma in childhood, representing 5-8% of all malignancies in children.
== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/NCOA1_HUMAN NCOA1_HUMAN] Nuclear receptor coactivator that directly binds nuclear receptors and stimulates the transcriptional activities in a hormone-dependent fashion. Involved in the coactivation of different nuclear receptors, such as for steroids (PGR, GR and ER), retinoids (RXRs), thyroid hormone (TRs) and prostanoids (PPARs). Also involved in coactivation mediated by STAT3, STAT5A, STAT5B and STAT6 transcription factors. Displays histone acetyltransferase activity toward H3 and H4; the relevance of such activity remains however unclear. Plays a central role in creating multisubunit coactivator complexes that act via remodeling of chromatin, and possibly acts by participating in both chromatin remodeling and recruitment of general transcription factors. Required with NCOA2 to control energy balance between white and brown adipose tissues. Required for mediating steroid hormone response. Isoform 2 has a higher thyroid hormone-dependent transactivation activity than isoform 1 and isoform 3.<ref>PMID:9427757</ref> <ref>PMID:7481822</ref> <ref>PMID:9223431</ref> <ref>PMID:9296499</ref> <ref>PMID:9223281</ref> <ref>PMID:10449719</ref> <ref>PMID:12954634</ref> [https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/NR1I2_HUMAN NR1I2_HUMAN] Nuclear receptor that binds and is activated by variety of endogenous and xenobiotic compounds. Transcription factor that activates the transcription of multiple genes involved in the metabolism and secretion of potentially harmful xenobiotics, drugs and endogenous compounds. Activated by the antibiotic rifampicin and various plant metabolites, such as hyperforin, guggulipid, colupulone, and isoflavones. Response to specific ligands is species-specific. Activated by naturally occurring steroids, such as pregnenolone and progesterone. Binds to a response element in the promoters of the CYP3A4 and ABCB1/MDR1 genes.<ref>PMID:9727070</ref> <ref>PMID:11668216</ref> <ref>PMID:11297522</ref> <ref>PMID:19297428</ref> <ref>PMID:12578355</ref> <ref>PMID:18768384</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Nuclear receptors are ligand-activated transcription factors that can often be useful drug targets. Unfortunately, ligand promiscuity leads to two-thirds of receptors remaining clinically untargeted. PXR is a nuclear receptor that can be activated by diverse compounds to elevate metabolism, negatively impacting drug efficacy and safety. This presents a barrier to drug development because compounds designed to target other proteins must avoid PXR activation while retaining potency for the desired target. This problem could be avoided by using PXR antagonists, but these compounds are rare, and their molecular mechanisms remain unknown. Here, we report structurally related PXR-selective agonists and antagonists and their corresponding co-crystal structures to describe mechanisms of antagonism and selectivity. Structural and computational approaches show that antagonists induce PXR conformational changes incompatible with transcriptional coactivator recruitment. These results guide the design of compounds with predictable agonist/antagonist activities and bolster efforts to generate antagonists to prevent PXR activation interfering with other drugs.
